FE: Jensen Property/Driveway
Dear Mr. Peterson:
Exhibit "E"
£esolution #86-27
I have viewed the driveway accessing the upper meadow where
the Jensen improvements are. The driveway is cut in
Quaternary age glacio-fluvial terrace deposits which consist
of poorly sorted and poorly graded clays, silts, sands,
gravels and. cobbles.
Although the driveway is a little steep, approaching eight to
ten percent grade in one stretch, it is well constructed with
a good base, There is no evidence of slumping or other
instability at this time on the cut bank side of the road.
The underlying bedrock in this area is the Cretaceous age
Mancos Shale which dips approximately twenty degrees to the
south, or generally into the hillside. On balance, this is a
positive factor, but the eroded surface of the shale beneath
the glacial deposits probably slopes into the valley. This,
in conjunction with an irrigation ditch which crosses the
hillside above the steeper part of the access road, could
cause instability and potential failures along the road cut.
This potential, of course, would be magnified if the ditch
itself were to fail.
My recommendations are to irrigate this section of the
pasture on the terrace above the road carefully, and to leave
water in this particular ditch for as short a period of time
as passible. Obviously, the ditch should be well maintained
so as to keep the potential for failure at a minimum. Yn the
fall, after the irrigation season is over, this portion of
the ditch above the road should be made to catch and carry as
little spring runoff as possible. Despite possibly decades
of irrigation at this site,_I saw no significant signs of
instability along the access road and expect little trouble
with mass wasting, especially if the above recommendations
are followed. Please contact me if there are further
questions.

RE: Snowmass Cree4-, 1441 Study
Dear Mr. Peterson:
Exhibit "C"
P..~ge 1 of
,solution tr86-27
I have completed my geologic investigation of Lot 12 of the
Jensen property in the Snowmass Creek valley. The
roughly triangular shaped lot is approximately 70 acre=_ along
the west side of the Snowmass Creek Road. This is within the
SE 1/4 of Sec. 2, T 9 S, R 85 W of the Si::th P. M., within the
Woody Creek 7 1/2 minute quadrangle, Pitkin County, Colorado.
None of the property goes beyond the base of the steep
hillside to the west. The building site as shown on the
accompanying map is near the west central portion of the lut.
The topography of the proposed site consists of irrigated
pastl.zre interspersed with groves of scrub oak:. The site is
quite flat and is more than BO feet away from the base of the
steep hillside. There are no existing structures on this
site.
The geology of the site consists of surficial deposits of
glacio-fluvial origin of Quaternary age. This is in the form
of poorly sorted silts, sands and gravels on a terrace above
the present level of Snowmass Creek. :Underlying this
material, perhaps 50 to 100 feet below the surface, is the
Cretaceous age Mancos Shale which in this general area dips
appro:<imately 15 degrees to the south.' There are no other
geologic structures which could adver$ely affect this site.
The building site as depicted is far enough away from the
base ^f the steep hill to the west so .as not to be affected
by any gravity related phenomena there. There are no
significant gullies on that hillside which could have an
affect on the building site. ...This is pan a;<cellent site for
the development of a single family dwelling, but high ground
water conditions should be expected, especially during
irrigation season. It will still be necessary to have a
soils engineering study prepared to insure proper foundation
design and to protect against potential high ground water
conditions.

Exhibit "C"
Page 2 of 2
Resolution ~r86-27
Access to the site should be easily attainable off the
Snowmass Creek: Road on grade to the site, but several
culverts may be necessary because of the irrigation system in
place. Water for domestic use should be available through
the drilling of a well to a depth of perhaps lUO feet. Waste
disposal should be available through the construction of a
septic system with accompanying leach field in these
permeable sails. Once again, the complicating factor may be
the potential for high ground water, the Pitkin County
Sanitation Engineer should be consulted for his specific
recommendations. Please contact me if you have further
questions.

Re: Robert N. Jensen
Employee Housing Fees
Dear Brooke,
In response to your January 9, 1987, letter to Peggy Seeger, I
have attached the memo from Ann Bowman which was included in the
September 2, 1986, Planning Commission packet. As you can see
from Ann's memo, we were aware of the discrepancy between the
526,300 which Bob committed and the 526,600 required by the Land
Use Code. The dollar amount is set by the Land Use Code and
Housing Authority and cannot be raised or lowered upon the whims
of either the applicant or staff. The important factor is the
commitment to provide a payment for the moderate income level-
that commitment is the basis for the GNP score you received. I
believe that Mr. Jensen was charged the correct amount which is
513,300. if you have any further questions please feel free to
call me.
Have a nice day,

Re: Robert N. Jensen
Employee Housing Fees
Dear Peggy,
In order to straighten out the disagreement regarding Mr.
Jensen's employee housing fees which are owing pursuant to the
Resolution 86-99 granting G.M.P. approval to him for two (2)
units on his property in Old Snowmass (a copy of which is
enclosed), I am also enclosing a copy of the pertinent pages of
Mr. Jensen's application where he agreed to pay the total sum of
Twenty Six Thousand Three Hundred Dollars ($26,300.00) in
fulfillment of his employee housing obligations.
I do not believe that this amount was questioned by staff
upon review of Mr. Jensen's application, and the Resolution of
approval certainly does not make approval conditioned upon an
agreement to pay any more than this amount. Accordingly, I must
insist, given that Mr. Jensen has paid the sum of Thirteen
Thousand Three Hundred Dollars ($13,300.00) to you under protest
in order to fulfill his obligation for the first free market
unit, that he be issued a rebate of One Hundred Fifty Dollars
($150.00) immediately. Admittedly, this is a small amount, but
Mr. Jensen and I feel that, by virtue of the sterilization of
his property, he has already provided substantial benefits to
the County.
By a copy of this letter to Francis Krizmanich of the
Planning Office, and Ann Bowman of the Housing Office, I am
asking them to confirm to you my representations, and to please
contact me immediately if they disagree with my position.
Thank you for your assistance.

MEMORANDDM
T0: Board of County Commissioners ~-}~
FROM: Francis X. Krizmanich, Planning Office ~ I
RE: Down Valley Growth Management Allotments
DATE: September 22, 1986
The Down Valley Residential Growth Management Quota available for
1986 is 10 units. There were three applications submitted this
year requesting a total of eight (8) units as follows:
The River Road Ranch: 2 Units (1 employee, 1 free market
Jensen 2 Units (2 free market)
Aspen-Mass Ranch 4 Units (1 employee, 3 free market)
All of the projects met the minimum scoring threshold. Because
the Aspen-Mass application is also requesting rezoning and
general submission approval, that application will be reviewed
after the 30 day public notice requirement has been met.
The River Road Ranch and the Jensen applications have received
final 1041 Special Review approval by the Planning Commission and
neither requires subdivision approval. Both of these projects
may proceed once they have received their Growth Management
allotments from the Board. The Planning Office has prepared a
Resolution for your review and approval at today's hearing should
you decide to forego the usual two week period between your final
action and the passage of the resolution granting the allotments.
Approving the resolution today would give the applicants two
additional weeks to begin their house construction this year.

T0: Pitkin County Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Francis Rrizmanich, Planning Office
RE: Jensen 1041 Hazard Review
DATE: September 2, 1986
APPLICANT: Robert N. Jensen
REQUEST: The Applicant is requesting 1041 Hazard Review approval
for two residential homesites on a 269 acre parcel located on
Snowmass Creek Road adjacent to the eastern boundary of the
Windstar property..
ZONING: The property is zoned RS-30 PUD and is 260 acres in
s iz e..
WATER: Water is to be provided by individual wells for each
residence..
SEWER: Sewage is proposed to be treated by individual septic
systems..
ACCESS: Access to each site will be via individual pre-existing
driveways.. No new road cuts are proposed.
MAJOR ISSOES AND CONCERNS:
A, Referral Agency Comments:
_ 1. Office of the State Engineer - In a letter dated August
8, 1986, Hal Simpson commented that sufficient well
permits are available for the proposed development and
he recommends approval.
2.. Colorado Geological Survey - In a letter dated August
13, 1986 (attached) Jeff Hynes commented that the
recommendations of the geologic report should be incor-
porated into the project.
3. County Environmental Coordinator - In a memo dated July
24 1986, Mark Fuller submitted the following comments:
"The division of this property into two and the
concurrent proportional division of the water
rights thereon may create difficulty in future
irrigation.. Any approvals must be conditioned on
~, ,
weed control with the County or a private contrac-
tor or by demonstrating a willingness or ability
to control weeds on his property prior to and
following construction..
3.. County Environmental Health Department - In a memo
dated August 19, 1986 (attached) Bob Nelson submitted
the following comments:
o Mater Supply - Water is to be supplied from a well
already constructed on the property.. Water
quantity should be periodically verified.
Bacteriological and chemical tests of water
quality should be run and completed as a condition
of the Certificate of Occupancy..
o Septic System - A permit to w nstruct a relatively
conventional septic system for this development
can be granted if this project receives develop-
ment approval.. The applicant should be aware of
the requirement of obtaining a burning permit from
this office and should selectively burn only small
amounts of area each day to minimize air quality
impacts..
4.. County Planning Engineer - In a memo dated August 13,
1986 (attached), Tom Newland comments that the proposed
driveway will meet County Standards.. In addition, Tom
recommends that the recommendations of Dr.. Lampiris
should be follow ed to mitigate potential geologic
hazards..
B1 STAFF COMMENTS: This appl ication is requesting 1041 Geologic
Hazard Review approval for the construction of one (1) "free
market" residence and one (1) "employee unit" within an
agricultural outbuilding on a 20..8 acre, AF-1 zoned parcel..
_ The applicant has submitted a geologic report by Nicholas
Lampiris which contains the following reconunendations:
1. Landscaping at th e rear of the home should be designed
to conduct any excess runoff water around the site,
preferably to the west where there is a topographically
lower area..
2.. Site specific soils engineering studies must be
performed to insure proper fo undation design..
These recommendations appear to be appropriate and should be
made conditions of this applicatio n..
The Planning Office agrees with the recommendations of the
Environmental Health Department concerning water supply and
open burning. These rewmmendations should be made condi-
tions for this project..
The Planning Office also agrees with the rewmmendations of
Mark Fuller concerning the applicant providing a commitment
to control weeds on his property.. We do not agree with
Mark's recommendation to prohibit dogs as this property is
not within a mapped wildlife area..
In summary, the Planning Office opinion is that this project
complies with applicable 1041 Geologic Hazard Review
requirements subject to the previously noted conditions..
RECOMlIENDATION: The Planning Office rewmmends that the Planning
Commission grant 1041 Geolo gic Hazard Review approval to the
applicant subject to the following w nditions:
1.. Prior to issuance of any Building Permits, the Applicant
shall record a 24" x 36° mylar site plan which meets the
approval of the Planning Office and County Attorney.. Said
site plan shall include the Building Envelopes and access
drives as represented by the Applicant..
2.. The Applicant shall control weed infestation on his property
prior to and following construction activities..
3.. A verification of water quantity and bacteriological and
chemical tests of drinking water quality shall be completed
prior to the issuance of any Certificate of Occupancy for
either residence..
4.. Prior to issuance of a Building Permit, the applicant shall
comply with the recommendations of the geolooic report which
include:
a.. Landscaping at the rear of the homes shall be designed
to conduct any excess runoff water around the home
sites, preferably to the west where there is a topo-
graphically lower area.
b.. A site specific soils engineering study shall be
conducted to insure proper foundation design..
5.. The Applicant shall obtain a burnino permit from the
Environmental Health Department prior to conducting any open
burning on the site.
6.. The applicant shall obtain two residential allotments from
the Board of County Commissioners prior to final approval of
this application..

Re: Jensen GMP
Sec. 2, 3, & 11, T9S, R86W
Dear Mr. Krizmanich:
We have reviewed the above referenced proposal for two single-family
homes and one employee home on 269 acres. The proposed source of water supply
would be individual wells. The applicants already have constructed one well
for homesite 1, permit no. 141404.
Permit no. 141404 was issued allowing one well on 35.1 acres. The 35.1
acres identified on the permit appears to be a part of the 269 acres. The
permit area includes homesite 1.
In accordance with statute, a domestic well permit presently can be
issued on other tracts of 35 acres or more wholly owned by the applicant.
Since the property includes 269 acres, sufficient domestic well permits are

Dear Mr. Krizmanich:
RE: DOWN VALLEY RESIDENTIAL GMP, GEOLOGIC REVIEW
We have reviewed the materials submitted on the three proposals involved
in the Down Vally GMP Competition and the general and engineering geo-
logy of the three sites.
We concur with the general findings and conclusions found in the various
reports presented for the tracts and their respective development propo-
sals.
Of the recommendations offered by Nick Laupiris on the various sites,
all should be observed and incorporated into the detailed development
plans. We would like to reiterate the cautionary note he made concern-
ing the building setbacks from the steep slope of the river valley at
Aspen-Mass Ranch and the care required in locating the individual sep-
tic systems on this parcel.
The clustering concept causes the effective density of the four unre-
stricted units to be about 2-2.5 acre/unit. Additional consideration
needs to be given to the wells downslope of the proposed septic fields
and the potential for partially treated sewage to "daylight" on the steep
slope just below the proposed structures.
In summary, we feel that there are no geology-related problems associated
with any of the three proposals to render them infeasible, but careful
attention will be required to resolve the septic waste disposal issues on
the Aspen-Mass Ranch tract.
Yours very truly, //~_/

RE: DOWNVALLEY GMP APPLICATIONS
DATE: 7/24/86
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1.) Jensen
;~ .:
The division of this property into two and the concurrent
proportional division of the water rights thereon may create
difficulty in future irrigation. Any approvals must be condi-
tioned on full and regular continued irrigation according to
historic practices. The application makes no commitment as to
how the second house will be provided water. The 25 gallon-per-
minute production from the existing well on Homesite One is
probably adequate for two houses and such dual use would elimin-
ate the need for new well development and consequent development
of an augmentation plan and possible loss of irrigated land.
This water supply plan should be proposed as a condition of
approval. It is also possible that the existing pond on the
property could be used as an augmentation structure. I would also
recommend that vegetative screening around the residences and
ranch buildings and a dog prohibition be added as conditions in
order to maximize protection of adjacent wildlife migration
routes.
2. River Road Ranch
There do not seem to be any major concerns regarding the
development of this property with the possible exception of
wildlife impacts. Although the property is clearly not within
critical elk or deer habitat, adjacent habitats have become
stressed in recent years due to road and residential development
elsewhere in the valley, thus justifying wildlife protection
measures in adjacent areas. Therefore, dogs should be prohibited
from this development to assure the continued usefulness of
adjacent habitats. Also given the weed-infested nature of the
River Road area, the developer should commit to a weed control
effort by pledging to either contract for weed control with the
County or a private contractor or by demonstrating a willingness
and ability to control weeds on his property prior to and follow-

ing construction.
3. Aspen Mass Group
Given the visual vulnerability of this site it is critical
that any development be strictly controlled in terms of building
size and height. Although the on-site geography and vegetation
offer some protection, the home sites will be visible from
Highway 82 and elsewhere in the valley and both a specific
building height limitation and improved screening from the
highway side should be conditions of approval. This is particula-
rly true of the agricultural outbuildings as they tend to have a
more monolithic design and subsequently higher visual impact.
The undeveloped portions of this property, particularly the
area nearest the Smith Hill Road that were recently filled, are
weed infested and do not appear to be well-maintained. The
developer has provided assurances that these areas will be
rehabilitated in the future and should also specify seed mixtur-
es, maintenance plans, a commitment to treat weed infestations,
and assurance that the property has adequate water rights to keep
this area irrigated as well as other pasturelands.
The application does not indicate how much land might be lost
from irrigation as a result of the transfer of existing irrigat-
ion water rights to domestic well uses. This is important not
only in assuring that there is adequate water to the subdivision
but also in confirming that existing irrigation uses can be
continued. The application also does not state where the proposed
storage tank will be located and the potential impact of this
structure.
The application makes mention of pedestrian and equestrian
trials. It should be clarified that these trail(s) will be open
and available to the public at such time es the County wishes,
that is, when and if a connecting trail is available to the south
and east. In the meantime, the applicant should make the trail
_from their property to the Smith Bridge available to the public
as an alternative access to the Rio Grande Trail and True Smith
Park.
4. Hunter Creek Townhomes
The applicant states that the proposed development will
improve the air quality of the site. The replacement of the
existing single-family residence with seven woodburning devices
plus the added auto-generated air pollution contradicts this
assertion and indicates that this development will contribute to
air quality problems in the Smuggler area and in the metro area
in general.
The applicant asserts that a trail easement will be provided
to allow for Hunter Creek access with the exception of a 150 foot
section. The deletion of this section may effectively negate the
value of the easement and this issue should be resolved before

any value is attached to the proposed easement.
It should also be noted that this development, while it may not
in itself cause any severe environmental problems, will add to
the congestion and loss of open space that has recently characte-
rized the Smuggler area.

TO: Francis Krizmanich, Planning Office
FROM: Bob Nelson, Department of Environmental Health
DATE: August 19, 1986
RE: Jensen Residential GMP/General Submission/1041 Hazard
Review
This department has reviewed the recently forwarded general
submission application for compliance with Colorado Department of
Health Regulations, local requirements, and those specific
sections of the Pitkin County Land Use Code under our jurisdic-
tion. We present the following review comments for your consid-
eration regarding the referenced proposal:
1. WATER SUPPLY
Water is to be supplied from individual wells, one of which is
constructed on the property. The applicant has provided the
attached information which reports this well yield at 13.8
gallons per minute. This is a sufficient quantity for a single
family residence, and the geologic report indicates that a
similar well could be developed for the other homesite. Further,
Mr. Jensen had the developed well tested for bacteriological
quality on August 14, 1986 and the results meet established
standard for coliform organisms. However, there is no supporting
data or documents regarding the chemical quality of the source.
This should be done prior to the issuance of a certificate of
occupancy if the this proposal is approved and residences
eventually constructed. In conclusion, we anticipate that the
two wells will be a satisfactory source of drinking water, and
have no information which would lead us to other conclusions
about this project.
SEWAGE DISPOSAL
The application indicates that the wastewater will be disposed of
by means of individual septic systems and absorption fields. The
owner has requested our input regarding the construction of such
systems and we have completed several site visits in the last
year.
Our inspections and soil tests of Homesite #1 indicated that
observed in the general soil conditions correlated fairly well
with the reported typical characteristics of the area soil type,

Jensen GP1P/1041 Review

as indicated on the Soil Conservation Service maps (Soil Type 46D
- A clay loam and silty clay loam with slow permeability and a
high shrink-swell potential). Typically, this type of soil can
present some minor problems in the construction of a sewage
disposal system due to slow percolation rates. However, in this
case, the Chen and Associates subsurface study submitted to this
office in conjunction with a septic system permit application,
indicates that the specific soil within the building envelope of
Homesite #1 is more sandy than usually encountered within this
mapped unit. As a result of the sand content, the report
indicated that this particular soil "demonstrated only low to
minor swell potential after wetting". This was confirmed with the
measured rates of 35 minutes per inch with little swelling to
interfere and slow the rate of water absorption. It is the
conclusion of this department that a conventional septic system,
consisting of several hundred lineal feet of trench can be
constructed to meet County regulations. It is important to note
that the irrigation water must be intercepted and diverted away
from the absorption field of the sewage disposal system with
surface and subsurface interceptor drains in order to prevent
hydraulic loading and soil saturation and to insure proper
function.
We have also inspected Homesite #2, but have not conducted any
soil tests. The geologic report of Nick Lampiris, dated July 7,
1986, apparently addresses the lower building site. Lampiris
indicates that the soils should be permeable, but that a poten-
tial for high groundwater is anticipated, particularly during
irrigation. The reported typical characteristics of the area
soil type, as indicated on the Soil Conservation Service maps for
the lower homesite is Soil Type 56D-The Barnette-Libeg Associa-
tion. The Libeg portion of this soil, a loam to clay loam with
moderately rapid permeability and a moderate shrink-swell
potential, is by far the more suitable for septic system instal-
lation. Typically, this Libeg-typed soil, which appears to be
prevalent in the area of the building envelope, can be used
successfully for the construction of a sewage disposal system
which meets Pitkin County regulations. However, due to potential
water table problems which have been indicated in the Lampiris
report, and to the moderately slow and often erratic percolation
rates for those portions of the site which might consist of the
Burnette part of the associated soils, further site investigation
and soil testing is warranted. It is our opinion that a some
type of onsite wastewater disposal system can be developed, and
that more conventional septic systems most likely will be-
permitted under county regulations if Libeg soils are present
adjacent to the home. Again, however, the control of the irriga-
tion water is critical to the operation of the sewage disposal
system during the Summer.
Jensen GMP/1041 Review
August 19, 1986
Page 3
Further, water conservation methods, not suggested or indicated
as being employed in the submitted documents of the application,
could reduce the sewage disposal system size and are recommended.
There is no indication if any water-conserving fixtures are to be
provided or if other methods are to be utilized to conserve
groundwater. ~-
3. WATER QUALITY IMPACTS
The development proposal is small and we agree with the conclu-
sions in the application that there will not be any resulting
adverse water quality impacts from the proposal. The applicant
has improved the erosion and reduced the amount of sediment added
to the Snowmass Creek drainage with ditch repairs, construction
of a pond, and a more conscientious application of irrigation
water.
4. AIR QUALITY IMPACTS
The development is in an area of the County where one fireplace
and an unlimited number of wood stoves are permitted. Limiting
each structure to one fireplace slightly exceeds these minimum
requirements of County air pollution regulations. Gravel, or
"construction materials" on the driveway should minimize the
amount of dust generated from the few vehicle trips anticipated.
We do request that the applicant obtain burning permits for the
agricultural operations and limit this burning in terms of
quantity and duration, and to times of the year when the pollu-
tion potential is minimized by weather conditions.

FROM: Tom Newland, Planning Engineer
RE: Jensen GMP/General Submission
DATE: August 11, 1986
After reviewing the submission presented by Mr. Peterson on
behalf of the applicant, I would like to forward to you the
following comments:
GMP REVIEW
Storm Drainage: The applicant mentions the granting of a
construction license to the county as a means of solving the
potential storm drainage problem on Snowmass Creek Road (county
road #11). Perhaps the applicant could make more of a commitment
towards solving the potential drainage problem by installing the
drainage ditches along the county road.
Road System: Although the applicant has upgraded the access road
to Homesite #1, it does not conform to county standards at the
intersection with Snowmass Creek Road. In addition, the submis-
sion proposes an another driveway for the single additional free
market dwelling unit.
The submission does show where the roads to be used as driveways
currently exist on the property and mentions that they are
historic points of access. However, the submission does not show
"a road and access plan detailing road specifications, alignments
and relation to existing roadways" as requested by sub-section 5-
203:1(a). Therefore, I cannot determine if the internal road
system will conform to county standards.
Agricultural Lands Preservation: It appears that the siting of
Homesite #2 goes against administrative guideline (a) listed in
sub-section 5-104.1 of the county land use code. This guideline
states that the proposed development must be placed in a manner
that will not cause the division of agricultural lands into small
parcels that will be hard to manage. Perhaps the Homesite #2
building envelope could be removed from the center if a 70 acre
irrigated meadow and placed on a corner of the lot, resulting in
less overall impact to the irrigated meadow.
Scenic Quality: The submission states that the two homesites will
have minimal visual impact from the Snowmass Creek Road. It does
not state that both sites, especially homesite #1, are very
visable from the Watson Divide Road.
1041 HAZARD REVIEW
Slopes over 30X: The proposed development will not use or cross
the steep slopes of the property with any form of construction.
The access road to homesite #1 does cross these steep slopes, but
is a pre-existing access already in place.

Review comments on energy related aspects of Jensen GMP/General Submission
INSULATION
The project requirement to achieve energy savings of 25~ above the county's
minimum requirement is commendable. We assume this statement means the
project wiZ1, for example, increase the wall insulation R-values by 25~.
It would help if the proposal would define the following: the various
R-values of the building envelope; the type of glazing; and other
building components that will Zead to achieving their overall goal of
energy efficiency.
SOLAR ENERGY
The use of solar energy is not discussed in the proposal. We can
only guess what they are thinking both for passive solar design features
and/or any active solar devices.
WATER CONSERVATION
We would Iike to see a better definition of the type of showerheads, faucets,
and toilets that will be used. This would allow us to determine just how
efficiently the homes will use water. On page 8 under Water Resources
they state, "It is anticipated that each of the homes will be designed
to take advantage as much as possible of energy conservation features."
We would prefer the proposal to replace the word "anticipated" with
"required". The phrase, "as much as possible", also Zacks definition.

RE: Jensen Property/Driveway
Dear Mr. Peterson:
I have viewed the driveway accessing the upper meadow where
the Jensen improvements are. The driveway is cut in
Quaternary age glacio-fluvial terrace deposits which consist
of poorly sorted and poorly graded clays, silts, sands,
gravels and cobbles.
Although the driveway is a little steep, approaching sight to
ten percent grade in one stretch, it is well constructed with
a good base. There is no evidence of slumping or other
instability at this time on the cut bank side of the road.
The underlying bedrock: in this area is the Cretaceous age
Mancos Shale which dips approximately twenty degrees to the
south, or generally into the hillside. On balance, this is a
positive factor, but the eroded surface of the shale beneath
the glacial deposits probably slopes into the valley. This,
in conjunction with an irrigation ditch which crosses the
hillside above the steeper part of the access road, could
cause instability and potential failures along the road cut.
This potential, of course, would be magnified if the ditch
itself were to fail.
My recommendations are to irrigate this section of the
pasture on the terrace above the road carefully, and to leave
water in this particular ditch for as short a period of time
as possible. Obviously, the ditch should be well maintained
so as to keep the potential for failure at a minimum. In the
fall, after the irrigation season is over, this portion of
the ditch above the road should be made to catch and carry as
little spring runoff as possible. Despite possibly decades
of irrigation at this site, I saw no significant signs of
instability along the access road and expect little trouble
with mass wasting, especially if the above recommendations
are followed. Please contact me if there are further
questions.

Dear Mr. Peterson:
I have completed my geologic investigation of Lot 12 of the
Jensen property in the Snowmass Creek valley. The
roughly triangular shaped lot is approximately 7U acres along
the west side o{ the Snowmass Creek Food. This is within the
SE 1/4 of Sec.
Woody Creek 7 ' T 9 S' k 85 W of the Si::th P. M., within the
None o{ the 1/2 minute quadrangle, Pitkin County, Colorado,
property goes beyond the base of the steep
hillside to the west. The building site as shown on the
accompanying map is near the west central portion of the lot.
The topography of the proposed site consists of irrigated
pasture interspersed with groves o{ scrub oak. The site is
quite flat and is more than 80 feet away from the base of the
steep hillside. There are no e;;fisting structures on this
site.
The geology of the site consists of siarficial deposits of ~
glacio-fluvial origin of Quaternary age, This is in the {orm
o{ poorly sorted silts, sands and gravels on a terrace above
the present level of Snowmass Creek. :Underlying this
material, perhaps 50 to lOU feet below the surface, is the
Cretaceous age Mancos Shale which in this general area dips
aPPro:rimately 15 degrees to the south; There are no other
geologic structures which could adversely affect this site.
The building site as depicted is far enough away from the
base o{ the steep hill to the west so-as not to be affected
by any gravity related phenomena there. There are no
significant gullies on that hillside which could have an
affect on the building site. This is an e;<cellent site for
the development of a single family dwelling, but high ground
water conditions should be e;<pected, especially during
irrigation season. It will still be Necessary to have a
soils engineering study prepared to insure proper foundation
design and to protect against potential high ground water
conditions.

Access to the site should be easily attainable off the

the drilling of a well to a depth of perhaps 11~U feet. l4aste
disposal should be available through the construction of a
